We consider the inverse problem in geophysics of imaging the subsurface of the Earth in cases where a region below the surface is known to be formed by strata of different materials and the depths and thicknesses of the strata and the (possibly anisotropic) conductivity of each of them need to be identified simultaneously. This problem is treated as a special case of the inverse problem of determining a family of nested inclusions in a medium $Ω\subset\mathbb{R}^n$, $n ≥ 3$.
